Suzukii Trap™: a technology for the monitoring of D. suzukii captures in grapevines

The term “table grape” applies to those grape variants containing smaller amounts of sugar. They are tastier and are intended for fresh consumption.

According to the US National Agricultural Statistics Service, the losses caused by this pest exceeded 511 US$ millions in 2008.
